T-Mobile G1 Phone from iPhone 3G: Who Moved?

T-Mobile G1 Phone from iPhone 3G: Who Moved?

By: Peter Chubb | October 13, 2008 | 5 Comments

When the Apple iPhone first launched, there was a huge number of people moving away from their Blackberry’s, just so they could have the ultimate handset. Well now there is fear that those same customers of the iPhone could jump ship again, and land directly at the feet of the T-Mobile G1, the first Google Android powered cell phone.

Once the T-Mobile G1 is launched, this will be the hottest battle that the iPhone has had to face since its launch. There have been mixed views about the Google Phone, but one thing is certain, the handset will sell by the lorry load.

One reader said that they ordered their Google phone back in August, as he feels that the G1 is way more advanced in technology, as well as having a better OS. Will you be one of those jumping ship, and signing up with T-Mobile, just to get your hands on the G1?

    WELLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL. I think we will have to see, and i don’t think anything will ever surpass the iphone because everyone using itunes and has ipods and the iphone just has everythings neatly in place and it’s easy to access.

    It looks like T-Mobile is going to cap the heavy users with a 1GB monthly bandwidth of usage for the high speed access. That means a less congested network; once you weed out the “gotta watch YouTube any chance I get” crowd. I think the mostly for entertainment user will not like the limited access and reduced speed after 1GB. I feel that joe business man mary sensible user will love the G1.
    Most users will love the G1 not because of it’s similarity with IPhone, but because of it’s difference. That difference is the Android software and Google itself. Everyone that knows Google knows that Google is pretty successful at it’s pursuits. Google and T-Mobile might reduce the IPhone to “red haired step-child” status, especially if android is adopted by other carriers. Plus, do your search…the G1 can be unlocked.
    Since IPhone opened everyone up to the idea of smartphones, T-Mobile doesn’t have to sell the market on smartphones, they just have to say they are better; most of the brush clearing has already been done by Apple. Dovetail that with the fact that no one has seriously challenged IPhone in the smart phone market and we might see a warm welcome for a Google/Android/T-Mobile contender (if 1.5 million orders to date is not enough to suggest that).

    FYI – Google the data cap, TMobile already realized that their 1 gig data limit was absurd and got rid of it.
